- dial 000000 if you hear elevator music you’re in, if you hear ‘due to...’ hang up & try again
opting for a call back may be the best option because people are getting hung up on hold and wasting time all together. They allegedly do call backs after phone lines close.
if you hear ‘due to h...’ hang up 9/10 & call back & try again
consistent calling works best you have a better chance of getting thru when calling 500x back to back vs 500x in four hours
